I hope so! My MacBook Air has been running over 10 TB of writes per month. Considerably more than my old Intel MacBook Pro, which averaged 2.8 TB per month. Both 8GB machines.

It's enough that I'm worried it could start to see degraded performance after a couple of years or so. That already seemed to be happening on my Intel MacBook after only ~120 TB writes (256GB SSD).
